It’s a bit cherry picked, but only a bit, since there are a few languages that just copied the English word later on.
Japanese and Korean come to mind.
Holy shit. It’s insane that random AI generated drivel and misinformation has already started seeping into random conversations like this. It really has already become completely ubiquitous, hasn’t it? 🤦🏻♂️ OOF
The English for “ananas” is “pineapple”, did the English really think they grew on pine trees?
It’s their superficial resemblance to pinecones.

That actually makes it funnier to me because ananas would be easier to pronounce in Japanese vs pineapple. Ananansu(u is silent) vs Painappuru.
Oh absolutely!
They just had no ananas exposure beyond that from the Americans.
Spanish conveniently missing
And anthough it might be correct, I’ve never head anyone say mañana in Basque. We just use piña(pinia)
Here’s how the creation of the graphic went:
Fun fact: no one knows why us squid are called that in English and no other language calls us anything like that.
i call bullshit. its “abacaxi” in portuguese, not nanana
“Apple” is Old English for “fruit”, not specifically apple.
And apparently “pineapple” for the tropical fruit predates “pine cone”, OE used “pine nut”.
Earliest use of “pineapple” is 14th century translation for “pomegranate”.
Probably to avoid confusion with bananas?
Is english known for trying to avoid confusion?
Oh you can’t even imagine the amount of times I put a pineapple up there.
Here i go, imagining again.
Pineapples are a freak fruit though.They grow on some kind of weird weed like some kind of joke.

There is no such thing as a pineapple tree. That’s an AI image.
Pineapples grow in an even more ridiculous way.

Thankfully due to the costs and training rot, its not going to get worse.
Pineapples don’t grow on trees. Take that A’I’ slop somewhere else.

Those look closer to durian than pineapples tbh.
Durian have a far worse reputation than their actual reality. Surströmming, on the other hand, over-achieves its reputation.
that image looks pretty crazy!😮
It’s AI-generated non-sense. Pineapples grow on small plants like this:
ahh that makes a lot more sense as I’m currently following MegadethRulz’s homegrown pineapple saga here :D
Yeah, I grabbed it at random froma search results. I think it’s not real.
